A good first year for Newsroom

Newsroom reports:

It’s hard to believe Newsroom is just one year old. We’ve broken some of the biggest and most important stories in that time. Most recently the Russell McVeagh sex scandal which has tipped the law industry on its head. …

We set out to fill a gap in our media landscape for news on subjects we described as the Things that Matter. We believe, with your support, we have gone a considerable way towards achieving that goal. There is much yet to do, many stories still to be told and subjects needing more attention and interpretive journalism.

They definitely have filled a gap and have produced a lot of great investigative journalism. Long may it continue.

Some of their major stories are:

• Millions of caged eggs sold as free range in New Zealand
• Inside Gloriavale: The official story
• Todd Barclay investigation The politician, the police and the payout
• Winston Peters’s superannuation overpayment Co-habiting Peters billed $18,000
• Newsroom Investigation: National MP trained by Chinese spies
